Never Here
A downloadable game for Windows
ABOUT -
Never Here is a short, narrative driven psychological horror game focused on grief and the things we bury. You play as someone going about what seems like a normal day, though they blend together, something different happens today. Something dark, impossible. Discover what and why that is.
First-person exploration with small interactions and very light "puzzles".

DISCLAIMER PLEASE READ - This is my first game ever so I apologize for the size of the game (very unoptimized assets/code + lots of HD assets). If you experience any bugs/get stuck, restarting and slowly following the monologues should get you to the end. Also, if you try to play the game on an ultrawide monitor, you MIGHT run into some issues so if you can, try to play on a regular monitor!
If you try to extract/run the game and Windows Defender detects it as potentially harmful, don't worry, the majority of Unity games on here do that, it's just because Unity generates exe files that have no digital certificate or have generic data that Windows is scared of.

I am a streamer/youtuber by day so if you play my game on stream/youtube, PLEASE post it in the comments below, I would LOVE to watch you play!! And please leave a comment and review if you enjoyed, I'd really appreciate it. This is just my first game with very little dev experience, but I got more cooking...😼

Congrats on your first game! I truly enjoyed playing it. It's a really pretty game with impressive graphics and solid gameplay mechanics. It ran smoothly on my PC. I must say the ending did left me a bit confused though.
Keep up the good work! 🤗
Congratulations to all the creators of this little mystery game. The story is very good. I would like the creators of this game to subscribe to my YouTube channel, please. Thank you. Greetings from Spain!
¡Gracias por jugar mi juego y compartirlo con la audiencia de hispanohablantes en todo el mundo, amigo! ☺️
Great game, it made me hit my knee on my desk and it STILL hurts. 10/10
Great Game!
I’ve been a fan of fineokay for many years now. He has segments on Sunday where he plays horror games and I've also known he's been working on a short horror game. Over time, hearing him talk about the development process of this game, it was clear just how passionate he was about the project.
After play Never Here, I can honestly say it exceeded my expectations. You can really feel the months of work he poured into it. The story and plot are subtle and well-though out. The audio and visuals are excellent and suits the game. The game captures psychological horror beautifully and it doesn't rely on cheap jump scares, but still keeps you on edge the entire time.
It’s awesome to see a creator I’ve followed for so long try something different! I’m genuinely excited to see what fineokay does next. Would recommend!
Obrigado por jogar! 😊

W game, W streamer, this guy always scaries my Sundays over on twitch.tv/fineokay
Well paced, doesn't overstay its welcome, and the ambiance lends itself well to that elusive suspenseful feeling of something constantly lurking just outside your field of view. A promising start, by any metric.
Fantastic Game. I recommend anyone looking for a quick, scary game experience.
very spooky mentally, never know what's around the corner
This game will chill your winkles
